Three of those are coming off of the books at the end of the season. Only Kiprusoff and Ortio are under contract for the 2013-2014 season.
I don't see them making a play for a goalie until the offseason.

I agree more than likely in the off season. The only way i can see them going for one now, if it was available, is that Kipper has told them that he is going to retire. I don't think Bishop will be availble in the summer.
Some one had an interesting idea of, if we get a first in the trade for JBO, then they could use that 1st to get Bernier. More than likely Bernier will be traded in the summer and not now. If Kipper is gone then the flames would be wise to try and get a young franchise goalie that can play now. I don't think he would bolt in 2 years and more than likely would sign a 5-7 year contract extension.
